OK, this works I think. It deals with where we need to get to, and how, and shouldn't drop the tension for a couple more verses. The prompt inspired how the narrator is feeling after this verse :)
Feeling uneasy This abhorrent nation reaches a crescendo And as silence falls, the song expended, the boy holds out his arm. Tattooed there on welted skin are lines that form a map -- To Al-Amrit, I'm sure. "Take me there," he whispers.

Greg - it is also how I am feeling after reading your intro and before reading your verse...
Uh, yup. I could see how your narrator would feel uneasy at this point.
